Pebble plants, like many succulents, protect themselves from herbivores and environmental threats through physical adaptations and chemical defenses. Their thick, fleshy leaves store water and often have a tough, waxy coating that deters animals from eating them. Additionally, some species produce bitter or toxic compounds to make them less palatable. These strategies help them survive in harsh conditions and avoid predation.
